Welcome to What The Heck season 3! This podcast explores unexplained phenomena using stories gathered from various sources, then applies an academic research method to find theories and solutions for each one. So far, we've been unsuccessful in finding any concrete answers, but a few of the stories we've covered has been solved. This week, we're looking at the murder of Candace Hiltz. In August, 2006, Dolores Hiltz returned home from running errands to find her granddaughter upset and alone. Shortly afterwards, the body of Candace was discovered. After a short investigation, the case went cold for 11 years. A man had bought a storage unit, discovering lost evidence and exposing a member of Fremont County Sheriff's Department. What happened to Candace Hiltz? Why did the case go cold? What was inside the storage unit? Listen in to hear all the theories!
